On-Vehicle Inspection
- CHECK FUEL PUMP OPERATION
- Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.NOTE: Do not start the engine.
- Turn the intelligent tester on.
- Select the following menu items: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / ACTIVE TEST / FUEL PUMP/ SPD.
- Check the fuel operation while operating it with the intelligent tester.
If the fuel pump does not operate, replace the fuel pump.
- If you have no intelligent tester, connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 5 of the connector, and the negative (-) lead to terminal 4.NOTE:
- These tests must be done quickly (for less than 10 seconds) to prevent the coil from burning out.
- Keep the fuel pump as far away from the battery as possible.
- Always do the switching at the battery side.
- Check that there is pressure remaining in the fuel inlet pipe from the fuel line.
HINT:
If there is fuel pressure, you will hear the sound of fuel flow. If there is no fuel pressure, check these parts: Fusible link, Fuses, Main relay, Fuel pump, ECM and Wire harness.
- Turn the intelligent tester off.
- Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
- Disconnect the intelligent tester from the DLC3.
- CHECK FUEL PRESSURE
- Using a voltmeter, measure the battery voltage.
Standard voltage: 11 to 14 V
- Discharge fuel system pressure (See PRECAUTION ).
- Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.
- Remove the fuel pipe clamp No. 1.
- Pinch the retainer of the fuel tube connector, then pull the fuel tube connector out of the pipe to disconnect the fuel tube.NOTE:
- Check that there is no dirt or other foreign objects around the connector before disconnecting it. Clean the connector if necessary.
- It is necessary to prevent mud or dirt from entering the connector. If mud or dirt gets in the connector, the O-rings may not seal properly.
- Only disconnect the quick connector by hand.
- Do not bend, kink or twist the nylon tubes.
- Protect the connector by covering it with a plastic bag.
- if the pipe and connector are stuck, carefully try wiggling or pushing and pulling on the connector to release it. Pull the connector off the pipe carefully.
- Install SST and the fuel tube connector into the vehicle.
SST 09268-31011 (09268-41500, 90467-13001, 95336-08070), 09268-45014 (09268-41200, 09268-41220, 09268-41250)
- Wipe off any split gasoline.
- Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.
Torque: 5.4 N*m (55 kgf*cm, 48 in.*lbf)
- Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Turn the intelligent tester on.
- Select the following menu items: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II /ACTIVE TEST / FUEL PUMP/ SPD.
- If you have no intelligent tester, connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 5 of the connector, and the negative (-) lead to terminal 4.
- Measure the fuel pressure.
Standard: 304 to 343 kPa (3.1 to 3.5 kgf/cm 2 , 44 to 50 psi)
- If the fuel pressure is greater than the standard value, replace the fuel pump.
- If the fuel pressure is less than the standard value, check the connection of the fuel hose and fuel pump.
- Disconnect the intelligent tester from the DLC3.
- Start the engine.
- Measure the fuel pressure when the engine idles.
Standard: 304 to 343 kPa (3.1 to 3.5 kgf/cm 2 , 44 to 50 psi)
- Stop the engine.
- After stopping the engine, check that the fuel pressure does not change for 5 minutes.
Standard: 147 kPa (1.5 kgf/cm 2 , 21 psi) or more
If the fuel pressure is not as specified, check the fuel pump or fuel injector.
- Connect the fuel tube.
- Align the fuel tube connector with the pipe, then push the fuel tube connector in until the retainer makes a "click" sound to connect the fuel tube to the pipe.NOTE:
- Check that there are no scratches or foreign objects around the connected part of the fuel tube connector and pipe before performing this work.
- After connecting the fuel tube, check that the fuel tube is securely connected by pulling the fuel tube connector.
- Align the fuel tube connector with the pipe, then push the fuel tube connector in until the retainer makes a "click" sound to connect the fuel tube to the pipe.
- Install the fuel pipe clamp No. 1.
- Check for fuel leaks (See PRECAUTION ).
- Using a voltmeter, measure the battery voltage.
